Homeward Bound

"Homeward Bound" by Wangechi Mutu is a richly layered archival print with screenprint in colors on archival paper, showcasing the artist's signature fusion of the fantastical and the deeply personal. The work weaves together organic forms and vibrant hues, evoking themes of identity, migration, and belonging that are central to Mutu's expansive practice.
